Likewise, it has been reported that the Educational Inspection is already working to clarify what happened, although it has been stated that there were no previous complaints at that educational center.
The incidents would have taken place at the Cascanueces nursery, located at Calle Río Pelayo number 1 in Torrejón, where several parents have filed complaints after viewing a recording made by a student on an internship, who alerted to the behavior of the employee.
The video shows the caregiver forcefully holding a young baby, pressing her body against the wall, shouting at her, and forcibly feeding her while the child cries incessantly.
